FTA: As you will see, the samples do not show lengthy, wholesale “word for word” copying, but rather highly suspicious re-writing of the samples that strongly suggest:

Fields did not originate the ideas in her passages;

Fields is not conversant in the subjects she is writing about;

Fields found passages written by others with the same ideas and often identical phrasing; and

Fields merely re-factored these passages by restating others’ phrases using different words, but not enough to cover her tracks and hide her plagiarism;

Fields passed off the work as her own, without credit to others.

I myself found such a passage on my first attempt. At Amazon.com, I found her book, clicked on “Look Inside” and “Surprise Me” to find random pages. I Googled phases from the first paragraph I found and discovered a paragraph in a Wikipedia article that was very similar, and included several of the same ideas and phrases in the same short passage.
